I’m lucky that I can say yes. That said, I still wouldnt do it for free. What about you, how do you feel about your job/career/field in general?

    USD? Thats around what I’ve made for the last decade (power plant engineering). Its absolutely enough to be happy and secure. If a woman tells you that on a date shes the wrong one brother. Making that much btw, I wouldn’t bring it up on the first date, if asked, I’d just say “I do alright”

      Yes, USD. There are no people I meet anymore who think it’s a good salary. They think it’s poverty.

      I was at a party two nights ago and people asked me what I did, and they immediately excused themselves once they found out my job.

        The median US full time salary is 62k, you’re earning 2 and a half times that. Anyone who tells you that’s poverty is either full of shit or deliberately trying to bring you down.
